About Whitehall Historic House
Building on a 500 year history, the recently completed Heritage Lottery Fund refurbishment project (Know Our Place: Sharing and Saving Whitehall), supported by the Borough, presents an opportunity to rediscover this incredible site with greater access than ever before.
In addition to improved physical accessibility, the project allows us to offer the space to the community in new and exciting ways as a hub for education and entertainment, inviting visitors to add to Whitehall’s unique story moving into the future.
Built around 1500, Whitehall is a Grade II* listed Tudor house in the heart of Cheam Village. It is owned and managed by the London Borough of Sutton who opened it as a local museum in 1978 following a campaign by the community. The construction of Whitehall as well as the story of its use and occupants through time offer unique insights into the past.
Following the recently completed National Lottery Heritage Fund refurbishment, we are delighted to see visitors enjoy Whitehall and rediscover this incredible site for FREE. This Grade II* listed property is an impressive feature at the heart of the picturesque village of Cheam.
